Abstract

Rocks produced by the deformation of conglomeratic
sediments strongly resemble pseudodeformed
conglomerates in which tectonic disruption
of beds, veins and pebbles produce pebblelike
bodies.
The Goat Island Conglomerate is a tectonic
melange containing numerous tectonically formed
fragments but is dominantly a metaconglomerate.
